Coun Neil Dawson (Lab, Morley South) said: “This will be the step change needed to improve the station.”

Morley is one of several stations in West Yorkshire set to benefit from major development plans for local rail stations.

There are opportunities to have funding for station improvements in the new Northern and Transpennine franchises.
